    Would anyone have access to the JSTOR database, and be able to download an article for me?

    Is Jstor not still free? I thought they had made it accessible once registered.

    If not, yes, I have it so can help if you send me a PM.

    I accessed an article from JSTOR last week. There is an announcement--at least in the US but maybe everywhere--that during the pandemic you can freely access 100 articles a month.

    Now sorted. Thanks to dobman88

    (Didn't realise a member of the general public could access the Database - thought it had to be through something academic).😳

    I get this message when I enter a search term, then see the article I want, then click on 'save'. The message below appears. I could not download the article but I could save to my hard drive an image of each page. A bit awkward but worth the effort for me.
